Legal Solutions and Services That Help You to Best Serve Your Clients

Law firms are constantly overflowing with documents. In order to do their jobs, attorneys and paralegals must print, copy, and distribute documents every day of the week.

However, it’s still hard to believe that legal organizations spend an average of 13.7% of their annual revenues on producing internal and external documents. The overall industry average is less than half that at just 6.1%.

Usually, more than 85% of a legal organization’s outputs are client related too. Although this means that printing should be billed back, it’s likely this isn’t happening as much as it should.

Common Challenges Facing Legal Organizations

When law firms don’t run smoothly, there can be serious ramifications aside from just excessive overhead. Here are some other common challenges that can potentially become major problems:

Bottlenecked search and retrieval processes:

An efficient firm is one where lawyers and paralegals can quickly and effortlessly retrieve important documents, something that’s impossible without the right system in place.

Avoidable expenses:

Everything from unnecessary copies to paying for the proper disposal of documents that never had to be printed off in the first place can prove to be serious burdens on your budget.

Data security:

Law firms are constantly being targeted by hackers. Important information you’re responsible for can also be vulnerable simply because it only exists in paper form. These documents could be lost or easily destroyed. Even digital data is at risk if you don’t have a disaster recovery plan in place.

Client chargebacks:

If you’re not billing your clients for printing and other services they’re supposed to cover, your revenues are definitely suffering. Depending on the number of clients you serve every year, this could represent a sizable loss.

As you can see, poor document management and inefficient device management can cost you in several different ways. Fortunately, Donnellon McCarthy Enterprises (DME) can help.
